You'll love our Grade A to B Amethyst gemstone beads and Amethyst Pendants. Amethyst is a violet variety of quartz that is popular in jewelry designs. The mineral contains a small amount of iron, which gives it its purple tint. Amethyst is the traditional birthstone for February. Amethyst was considered a precious gemstone by the ancient Egyptians. Now, because of large deposits found in Brazil in the 19th century, amethyst is considered a semiprecious stone. Learn more in our gemstone glossary.

Love these nuggets

This is the second time I've ordered these amethyst nuggets. I just love them! I made a necklace with them and spaced them with rose quartz and they sold shortly after! I'm going to make earrings and another necklace with the ones I just received. They are Great!!
